I selected the first skill [<Basic animalistic bite>] and a window appeared next to it.

[Are you sure you want to spend 20 System points to learn it?]

[Yes] - -[No]

Seeing this, I naturally directly selected [Yes] and a new notification appeared.

[Congratulation! You have learned <Basic animalistic bite>]

After I learned the first skill, I also bought the other two and I got two new notifications.

[Congratulation! You have learned <Basic animalistic movement>]

[Congratulation! You have learned <Piercing claws>]

'Good, now I should be able to defeat my enemies even faster' I thought after seeing that I had already learned all three skills.

'Then let's go hunt again, but this time I should find some beasts with cultivation because from those without I won't gain much anymore.' I quickly decided and started walking a bit deeper in the forest, than where I normally was, because I thought that there would surely be some beasts with cultivation, but also not too strong.

After walking for a short while I suddenly exclaimed in my mind:' Fuck! Isn't this before me a goblin? In what kind of fantasy world am I, haha.'

The goblin was only as big as a child and held a rusty spear as a weapon, but I had no fear towards the spear because io was sure that I was faster than the goblin could react.

And at the same moment as I laid my eyes on the goblin, a screen popped up again with a small amount of information.

[Forest goblin]

[Cultivation: 3rd Tier of the Novice realm]

Ok this should be an easy kill, I thought and directly ran towards the goblin without even using my skills because I was four small realms higher than the goblin, so there was no need to waste them.

"Bam!"

The goblin tried to hit me with his spear, but I dodged, so he could only hit the ground.

The goblin had actually sensed me a little earlier than I had thought he would, but that did not make any difference.

After I evaded his spear, I pounced on him with my claws outstretched and swiftly cut through his throat.

After I had killed him, I used <Black Hole> and decided to convert into [Essence] again, because I wanted to raise my cultivation again.

As soon as the corpse was converted into essence, I felt strength course through my body and organs and was happy, because I liked the feeling of becoming stronger.

When the [Essence was fully absorbed into my body I received a new notification.

[Congratulations! You have advanced: 8th Tier of the Novice realm]

'Perfect. Another advancement.' I happily thought.

I thought that I could cancel <Black Hole> again, but then suddenly the goblin's weapon got sucked into it and was also converted into essence.

'What! Weapons can also be converted to essence? Ah right, in the description of the skill was written that everything that is sucked in it will also be converted into [Essence] or [System points]. That means I can basically suck everything in it and convert it into my strength. Thas fucking op right there. Hehe. I totally forgot this detail.' I suddenly remembered.

The essence I got from the sword was only minimal, but it was still something at least.

After this was done, I proceeded to search for another prey, but it seemed that my luck ended here today because I could not find a single beast in the vicinity after over an hour of search.

I decided to give up for today and return to the cave first and rest, because even though I was not physically exhausted after hunting because I could refill my energy with the [Essence] I got from my prey, but I was mentally exhausted.

Due to me being more far away than yesterday from the cave, I also took longer to return and when I finally returned it was already getting dark outside.

When I came back, I could not see the tiger, but I did not care much about it and decided to rest first.

Early the next morning I woke up and I chose to directly go hunting again.

While I was walking through the forest I was also thinking:' I should probably find a cave or something that is more in the depth of the forest, so that I don't have to walk so long back and forth each time just to find some prey. Yes, let's do that!'

While I was on my way to go deeper into the forest I encountered a few beasts, but they were all only in the 1th or 2th Tier of the Novice realm, so I converted them into system points, because they would not help me much in increasing my strength.

After that I thought 'Hmm, Let's take a look at my current status'

'Open Status' I inwardly thought.

After looking at my points I thought 'So, these few beasts gave me 35 [System points], which is actually not bad.' And then I closed my status again and continued to walk through the forest.
